You might wonder why, in FPGA design, you would go beyond simply using the design tools provided by the FPGA vendor (e.g. Xilinx, Intel/Altera and Microsemi). After all, they know their hardware platform better than anyone else, and they’re pretty good at design software too. But there’s one thing none of these providers want to… Read More
Best Verifiable QoR – A Formal Equivalence Checking Yardstick
To achieve maximal QoR, Broadcom wanted to take advantage of all the advanced optimizations that Design Compiler offers. These optimizations, however, are of little value if they cannot be verified through Formal Equivalence Checking.
This presentation details how Formality Equivalence Checking gave Broadcom the confidence… Read More
